From 1986 - 2003 Robert presented the hugely successful Kilroy programme on BBC1 every weekday.

He is the author of three books Socialism since Marx Hard Labour The Political Diary of Robert Kilroy-Silk and a novel, The Ceremony of Innocence.

He wrote a political column in The Times for 5 years, for The Daily Express for another 5 years and The Sunday Express as well as columns for Time Out, Chat, The Sunday Mirror and the Today Newspaper.
